ARST 158 - Introduction to Digital Painting / Mark Making

FC ARHU

4 credits
This Painting course uses digital tools in conjunction with non-toxic paint and dry media to create physically printed/painted works as well as animated, digitally painted and rotoscoped works that exist only on a screen. Projects will use Wacom tablets, IPads, Adobe software, scanners and VR to create works that shift between digital and analog and back again, emphasizing the painterly use of color, light, push/pull and mark making. In looking at contemporary artist’s work and creating digital paintings students will explore the expanded field and the ongoing critical discussion of the nature of “painting”. Field trips required.
